'I shut my eyes & all the world drops dead' is from Plath's poem 'Mad girls love song' |
| I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead And my eyes remained closed By the heavy weights Of this world and it's sorrows Pushing my eyes Shut shut shut And deeper into the depths Dead dead dead Forced shut and alone, cold By the alien life That continues to poison my air The only choice The only escape Is the deepness of my soul I need complete dedication To be dead alone Silent solitary Lost within myself To dedicate all I could have For peace, For silence, I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead Stay closed Baby keep them closed, Never open them Never be born You'll be blinded by the harshness Shut Shut Shut Dead dead dead 'I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead' |
